Billy Eckstine

William Clarence Eckstine (July 8, 1914 – March 8, 1993) was an American singer of ballads and a bandleader of the swing era. Eckstine's smooth baritone and distinctive vibrato broke down barriers throughout the 1940s, first as leader of the original bop big-band, then as the first romantic black male in popular music. Eckstine's recording of "I Apologize" (MGM Pop Single, 1948) was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999. more »

Once, and only once
The one and only comes along
Once you took my hand
I felt your touch and I was strong
No wonder other simple love
Was not too clear to me
Though you were dear to me
I walked away

Who knew that once I knew your arms
Your arms would bind me to the past
I, who used to say
That nothing in the world could last
We live but once
And now I know my once was then
Please take me back
And love me once again

We live but once
And now I know my once was then
Please take me back
And love me once again
